Happy Sketching!
UPDATE: I forgot to mention, if you don't want your drawing to turn out as dark and browny as mine is, use less worcestershire sauce and more water.

Moi Je Joue
Oh boy, I think I may be addicted to making how-to videos, you guys! Now every time I lift a finger around the house I find myself thinking "Oooo I wonder if this would make a cute how-to video!?" Today I bring you my newest addition: "How To Make a Faux-Antique Drawing". I made up this little technique a year or two ago (though I'm sure I'm not the first person to do this), and have drawings just like this one all over my house.

I'm loving these videos! That picture turned out so cute. Do you think the same would work with water mixed with food colouring? Say if I wanted to try making a blue-tinted one or something?
ReplyDeleteGreat video! Silly question: are you a lefty? I've heard that left-handed people are more creative and you are definitely creative!
ReplyDeleteseriously you are so crafty! love the cute videos. keep 'em coming! miss you gracie!
ReplyDeleteThis doesn't really have too much to do with this post, but I wanted to share some links with you. I was browsing Martha Stewart's website and I saw these cute crafts you may want to try! If they turn out well, can you let me know so my less-talented self can try? ;)

grace - thank you so much! I still want to go grab lunch sometime!
ReplyDeletejess - long time no see! and thanks;)
poly - I'm sure it would! You'd probably need several drops of food coloring, but I bet it would work. That might look really cool (using blue) if the drawing was done on a piece of notebook paper!
anon - I write and draw with my right hand, but I was left-handed/left-legged in every sport I tried, including gymnastics. I couldn't do a right-handed cartwheel to save my life, haha:) So I guess I'm sort of ambidextrous? My mom is a lefty, and she is very creative, so maybe I got some of her lefty traits:)
Claire - awww, thanks buddy! I miss you too!!!
Jessica - Oooooo I'm excited! Going to check them all out right now ...
I love the videos! You do such a great job buddy!
